F-8 Crusader Navy History:
The Vought-produced F-8 Crusader was a direct response to a Navy need for a supersonic carrier-based fighter platform. Utilizing nearly the identical powerplant of the F-100 Super Sabre, the F-8 Crusader became the world's first carrier-based aircraft to break the speed of sound. Appearing like a conglomeration of the F-100 Super Sabre and A-7 Corsair II, the F-8 Crusader featured an elongated fuselage with a high wing assembly. A single rudder sat atop the powerplant that, in the end, would go on to generate 18,000 lbs of thrust with afterburn capability.
